httpaccess.C File Reference

Detailed Description

This program demonstrates access control to the THttpServer with digest methods.

Authentication file auth.txt was generated with following shell commands:

[shell] htdigest -c auth.txt root guest
typing <empty> password for guest account
[shell] htdigest auth.txt root admin
typing 'admin' as password for admin account
#define c(i)
Definition RSha256.hxx:101

When macro started and opening in browser with url

http://localhost:8080

User name and password will be requested. One should either specify guest account without password or admin account with password 'admin'

User with guest account only can monitor histograms User with admin account see commands, which can be executed
